Can participants receive both milk and formula in Food Package III?
Yes. Food package III is issued to women, children and infants who have a documented qualifying medical condition that requires use of a WIC formula/medical food because use of conventional foods is precluded, restricted, or inadequate to address their special nutritional needs. Other WIC foods, including milk, may also be provided to an individual participant if medically warranted and with medical documentation. State agencies do not have the option to require participants to choose either milk or formula.
